Abstract :
The INFUSE change-management facility´s methodology is briefly explained and its use of a hierarchy of experimental databases for controlling and coordinating changes is described. The authors then present the algorithm which INFUSE uses to automatically build and maintain this hierarchy. Some results of the application of INFUSE are given; one presented hierarchy is similar to one independently identified by a human expert
